A gasp a pain
An ignorance in vain
As if thats the only thing i could do 
to not feel
To not hear to not see 
To not be what im meant to be 
I dont want to be this 
Dying because of his unwanted kiss
Dying because of justice unserved
Dying because of a lesson well learned 
All girls need to learn 
Dont wear a shirt that is too low cut 
Dont leave your drink on a table unwatched
And lock the door once its shut 
But what are we teaching the men,  the boys
Who continuously cause this pain 
That makes a girl ache 
That makes a girl be terrified 
Of all the ways a guy can lie 
Couldve lied 
Just to get her down the alley way 
Forced on her knees or on her back
And cause hopeless agonizing years of pain
By an unwanted kiss 
And society wants to sexualize me 
I have to dress in sexy clothes 
But once it happens im blamed for wearing those
I need to wear make up to look nice 
But once it happens i shouldve thought twice
I shouldve brought a friend,  a gun, 
I wish i brought someone something
I shouldve worn more baggy clothes 
And left my face plain
I shouldnt let it trigger me when someone says his name
Because of an unwanted kiss 
Was it my fault
Am i to blame
No! 
Society should not make me feel like im a walking bomb
Like i have to make him happy by being pleasant on his eyes 
But when was he pleasant when he left those bruises on my thighs 
Like i have to make him happy by kissing a girl
But did he make me happy when he forced me to uncurl 
To open my legs and let him do as he pleased 
And if i wouldve let him i wouldnt be down on my knees 
And let him never be put away to hurt other little girls or women 
Because its not my place 
Because im just a woman
I shouldnt get in anyones face and yell what i think and say how i feel 
Like i should kneel to a higher power 
Like i am crazy every hour on the hour 
NO
I am done being the victim 
Of an unwanted kiss 
Of being forced on my back
Of swinging with a miss 
I am not his and i am not yours 
I am a woman and i am strong 
And on top is where i belong 
With happiness and peace and love 
No gasp No pain
A short breath yes 
But im breathing 
That is a gain
